    I'll begin by saying it is good to have a movie theater at the mall again!…read more For the last couple years, many of us who wanted to go see a movie had to go to another town to see it. I was definitely one of those people. My last movie when Regal was here was Sonic 2, and this last night I went, the movie I had gone to see was Sonic 3. Every movie I had gone to see between these 2 movies I had to buy a ticket to go see in Norwalk, and sometimes I would have to call Ubers to make part of my trip home from a movie. Avatar 2, Transformers Rise of the Beasts, and the Furiosa movies were the movies in which I had to employ this method. So yeah, I am thankful to have had Apple Cinemas move here. But don't think that will get you an automatic 5 because, well, it's not. See, when I got here last night, this theater looked like a ghost town. The pocket areas where we could go to the bathroom were closed off, so if you need the bathroom, you have to go into the mall itself. This can quickly become a problem if the main mall had already closed for the night. You can however still go to the bathroom after you pass through the checkpoint where you get your ticket okayed to go. The lobby is basically scorched earth because there's nothing there anymore. I used to love coming in early and playing the arcade machines to kill time before the movie. It was one of the best things about movie nights. Even the old location of Apple Cinemas had something for me to do when I went to that location for the last time. But now there's nothing. Come on! Bring these back! They were so much fun! Concessions are back-to-basics in terms of what's available, but buying concessions are a bit of a pain now. They need to simplify this if they expect people to buy popcorn or any other kinds of snacks. The recliner chairs thankfully are still here. They do look messy when you walk in, but they still work fine. I'll give them a 3. This place still has their kinks to work out and hopefully Waterbury residents can stay in town for their movie nights going forward. My main things this place needs to improve on is their methods of purchasing concessions and they REALLY need to bring back the arcades!

    They need to start cleaning after every film, before the next one starts. The floors are…read moredisgusting, and all the seats are left greasy and dirty.
